Life Saving Words

Life Saving Words…

Paul wrote in 1 Timothy: ‘Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy… Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst.’ In effect, Paul is saying, ‘I was wrong.”

He not only said that at the end of his life, he undoubtedly said it, acted on it, manifested it, and lived it from the moment he encountered God on the road to Damascus onward…

It all started there with three words: I was wrong. Had he never been able to say those words, he would’ve never been forgiven, given a ministry, and been able to preach the Word, write the epistles, and change the world. In fact, everything he ever said or wrote all rested on three initial words: I was wrong.

Those powerful words turned the chief of sinners into the foremost of apostles. Those words in the grace of God will set you free from the old and open up your life to the healing and glory of God. It all begins when you say, “I was wrong.”

In what way were you less privileged than the rest of the churches, except that on my part, I did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!  2 Corinthians 12:13

Today, if you have a situation that calls for it, don’t be afraid to say, “I was wrong.”

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
